#2. Hope isn't true: Reason why Rusev was removed from WWE Super ShowDown

Rusev was supposed to be in WWE Super ShowDown. However, he was pulled out and PWInsider explained why he was out and it may also be the reason why his storyline with Bobby Lashley and Lana ended abruptly:

WWE star Rusev was not at tonight's Raw in Winnipeg, Manitoba and is no longer scheduled to travel to Saudi Arabia for this Thursday's WWE Super Showdown in Riyadh. The word making the rounds is that Rusev is citing a back issue, leading to his replacement

It's a bit disappointing that they invested months into a storyline where Rusev got over despite the booking and it was simply canceled abruptly. Either way, we would never wish an injury upon anyone and we hope that this rumor isn't true.

However, in all likeliness, it will be true since almost every superstar is believed to wrestle with niggling injuries. In Rusev's case, it's best if he sits it out for a while and recovers before coming back into the fray.
